Excel 2003 Formula cell reference colours (colors)
Hi
When entering a formula in Excel 2003 each cell reference is given a different colour. Assuming I can, how do I switch this off and have the cell references display as black when entering them? Thanks |

As far as I am aware you can't. Excel does this so it makes its easier for
you to identify the dirrerent cell references. Unless you are colour blind, you will see the colours as they should be.

I feared as much. I work with blind and partially sighted people and this 'feature' makes things very difficult or impossible for some of my clients using access technology. We will have to consider downgrading to Office 2000 I guess "fluffymoore" wrote: As far as I am aware you can't.

Just out of interest, have you tries altering the screen resolution? Granted
you would be limited on the amount the screen can show you but this would enlarge what your are seeing! "Clarkee" wrote: Thanks I feared as much.
